#100 Ways to Travel Easy Hotel is a sister company of the famous low-cost airline Easy Jet. There are locations in the UK, Europe, and the Middle East. And most cities in the UK, including London, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Liverpool, Manchester, Birmingham, etc.....there are some like European versions of Air Asia and Tune hotel. Most importantly, the price is cheap, the regular price is expected to be less than HK$400. If you hit the big sale, half or 70% off, super cheap! Among them, Sheffield city center is about 10 minutes walk from the train station, and most attractions are within walking distance. Easy Hotel branded itself as a low-cost hotel, so there was nothing in the room except a bed and a small toilet and shower. No toothbrushes and slippers (but two-in-one shower gel with shampoo and towels are provided), no tables and chairs, no kettle, no wifi. There is a TV to watch, a vending machine and a coffee machine in the lobby can be paid by the user. No gym no pool! The cheapest rooms also have no windows but do have central air conditioning. There is an elevator and a front desk. Incidentally, though it’s a low-cost hotel. But I think the attitude of the counter staff is very good, and very safe (there is a door ban requires a card swipe to enter.

Nice is really my favourite place on the tour, staying by the sea you can watch the sunrise from your balcony in the morning and walk on the shingle beach in the evening. The neighbouring towns of Cannes and Perfume are easy to get to and each have their own character!And every town has a different beach, stone or sand, harbour or bay，I also got to experience paragliding, which was a real thrill!#beachlife #trip

[Sheffield] ～ Cutlery Works I went to a food court called "Cultery Works" in Sheffield some time ago. There are various restaurants, drink shops, bars and so on. The decor is very cute and there is plenty of seating. We tried the authentic tea drinks from ALS GongCha, the bubble milk tea and cheese milk cap were both delicious. They have a lot of teas to choose from on the menu! For food, we had authentic Malaysian cuisine ~ Sylok-Lah! We were amazed by the overall dining experience and the food was delicious!

A friend and I made our way to Lodge Moor POW camp one spring. It’s not well marked or preserved in any way. However, in its hay day, it was the largest POW camp in Britain. We did some research and learned that it held about 10,000 prisoners at one point. Off all the historical places I’ve been to, I have to say, this one left the biggest impact. There was definitely a strange feeling on the site itself. Worth a visit if that history peaks your interest.

The first photo is a view of Sheffield's downtown, which I especially cherish and love. England, with its good weather, is so beautiful. I also recommend going up to Bolehills Park and watching the sunset. You can see the entire city of Sheffield at a glance. It's a great place to wrap up your day. #PleaseWinter #Winter #SoloTravel #YearEndTravel #England

📍crooks valley park (2nd photo) 📍the ponderosa park (3rd photo) These two parks are just a short walk from the University of Sheffield. Maybe because it was warmer than expected that day, there were people swimming in the lake at ponderosa park. I like swimming, so I would have liked to have brought extra clothes😭 After walking hard, we arrived at 📍the cavendish pub just in time for soccer. Here, I was greeted with my life beer, ‘Strongbow’..🍇 #winter #pleasewinter #uk #yearendtrip

While walking down Sheffield Street I went into this place because there were a lot of desserts on display that looked delicious. After eating, I searched and found out that it was a famous afternoon tea franchise that can be found all over England. Since it was a place that sold French desserts, there were also macarons. If you come across it while traveling around England, I recommend you go in and get some takeout.🍩 #winter #pleasetakewinter #afternoontea #England
